Not practical for a number of internal reasons. The status bar must remain undivided.RalphM wrote:Why don't you split the status bar in two?
1. for drive info at the bottom of tree view
2. for current list info at the bottom of list view
What no betas ?

Ahhhhh, ok. Well, I think the statusbar looks natural at the bottom. That's how most apps are designed. I know that will make the data contained in the statusbar farther away from the file listing, but I don't forsee that as a problem.admin wrote:The focus at the moment is on the statusbar: if I make an optionally-touch-bottom-tree the statusbar will always touch the bottom, even if the tree does not. At least that's my suggestion -- but I'm not sure whether I like it myself: the status bar below the info panel looks strange to me.

Tree at bottom, yes! It's good for most people, since they use higher resolutions, as JustinF says.admin wrote:Meditations are going on... here's an intermediate stage: the status bar has to move below the info panel, else if the tree touches the bottom the status bar would be right of the tree which would look shockingly weird.
test everything. hold on to the good.
